This video goes through a number of tips and tricks on snake behavior that will help you understand and work with your snake more effectively. Many of these tips have to do with reducing fear in your snake. I also give my favorite tip on an alternative to hook training. The focus here is on ball pythons with the exception of the hook training alternative, which I use for my superdwarf reticulated python but these tips can be applied to many species of snake.
